HD800s with Bass
Well i have had the Arya for over a month now with a few hundred hours burn in and added a Miedz balanced cable from cosmic cables (which is alot better than the standard cable) So without giving an in-depth review i will say that they are very good . There is nice separation , the soundstage is...- Linntroika

HD800s with Bass
Yes did EQ and yes they were much better , however i still missed the soundstage delivery of the Hd800s and the highs on the lcd xc were just to high ,Senns have better integration on the frequency range and the sound was better balanced overall, however the worst aspect of the Lcd xc was...- Linntroika

HD800s with Bass
I borrowed a Lcd xc from a friend for a few weeks and honestly i didn't like it (the lcd x maybe better but im sure its similar )My Hd800s were more to my liking and even when i A/B the 2 headphones my friend agreed that he to preferred the Sennheiser. I love everything the Senns do , just wish...- Linntroika

HD800s with Bass
I have the ifi ican pro with the xbass and use it on the Senns , after youtubeing all day i have taken the plunge and ordered the Arya, i see it does not come with a 4 pin balanced cable that i use on the Hd800s , has anyone used a 4pin with the Arya or is the standard good enough Many thanks- Linntroika

HD800s with Bass
Hello I really love what the Sennheisers do but i wish they had more extended Bass , therefore looking for headphones that can produce a wide soundstage and deliver a deep bass - budget up to £5k thanks in advance- Linntroika

ifI iCan Pro - Impressions & Discussion
I will admit that my Sennheiser Momentum's sound warmer and have a deeper bass(though not as well controlled) , but the soundstage , imaging, punchy bass, delightful mids & highs that the HDs possess more than make up for it , so for me they are a keeper (not to mention that they are...- Linntroika

ifI iCan Pro - Impressions & Discussion
Honest answer is i have absolutely no idea how the ifi performs against any other amps . This is my first serious headphone setup . Unfortunately where i live auditioning various manufactures is not a possibility , what drew me to the ifi pro , was the best of both worlds i.e- solid state &...- Linntroika

ifI iCan Pro - Impressions & Discussion
I cannot comment on the Hugo as i sold mine over a year ago(used it in my main hifi system- Naim/Shahinian) . Presently i have a Mojo with Hd800s , which is fine but i always felt the amp part of the Mojo was not getting the full potential out of the Sennheisers After auditioning various...- Linntroika
